i have a 1997 eagle vision esi 3.5 liter and i am getting engine/tranny codes 51 and 74. I had several codes previously in reference to the turbine speed sensors and replaced both. codes have been cleared and only these 2 remain. code 51 wasn't present at first but now is after repair. Am i looking at a shifter cable adjustment/bad shifter console or is this still in reference to an internal tranmission fault.

Welcome to Just Answer Dodge my name isXXXXX realize that all my answers are based solely on the info you provide me....

Your code 74 is not unusual to see and quite frankly it likely does not mean very much. Your code 51 however is for a gear ratio error in first gear. If all the other codes have been erased and this is the only code present, then this is telling you that there is an internal problem with the trans in relation to first gear. This could mean you have worn seals or worn clutches but with the absence of any other relevant codes, your only option at this point is to disassemble the trans and repair it.

I will tell you that...the things you have to go through to be an Expert are quite rigorous.

I GIVE YOU ALL THE CREDIT FOR YOUR DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM, JUST FROM THE SYMPTONS I GAVE YOU OVER THE e MAIL. I WILL USE YOUR WEB SITE AGAIN AND REFER MY FRIENDS. THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE HELP.
